A List  of  Books  in  the  Plainfield  Public  library. 


Prepared  by  Miss  Emma  L.  Adams,  Librarian. 


A FEW  WORDS  WITH  THE  TEACHER. 

THIS  list  has  been  compiled  for  the  use  of  teachers  and 
pupils  of  the  Public  Schools,  with  the  hope  that  they 
may  find  it  of  service  in  the  teaching  and  studying  of 
history.  It  contains  only  such  works  as  are  to  be  found  in  the 
Public  Library.  Being  prepared  for  the  Plainfield  Schools, 
the  countries  most  prominent  in  the  school  course  have  there- 
fore been  made  most  prominent  in  this  list. 

Such  books  as  are  especially  good  for  school  use  are  in- 
dicated by  the  asterisk  at  the  left.  Books  written  for  young 
people  are  indicated  by  the  J before  the  call  number. 

Suggestive  in  teaching  this  study  will  be  found  : — Adams’ 
Manual  of  historical  literature,  Adams’  Study  of  history  in 
American  colleges,  Gordy  and  Twitchell’s  Pathfinder,  Green’s 
Libraries  and  schools,  Hinsdale’s  How  to  study  and  teach 
history,  and  Stubb’s  Lectures  on  the  study  of  history.  Gen- 
eral reference  books,  valuable  both  to  teacher  and  pupil  are: — 
The  A.  L.  A.  Index  of  general  literature,  Brewer’s  Historic 
note-book,  Champlin’s  Cyclopaedia  of  persons  and  places, 
Haydn’s  Dictionary  of  dates,  Larned’s  History  for  ready  ref- 
erence, Matson’s  References  for  literary  workers  (especially 
good  for  historical  debates),  Poole’s  Index  of  periodicals,  Put- 
nam’s World’s  progress,  San  Francisco  Public  Library  list  of 
English  prose  fiction,  and  the  Scribner- Black  Atlas  of  the  world. 
Books  of  reference  in  United  States  history  are: — American 
encyclopaedia,  Appleton’s  Cyclopaedia  of  American  biography, 
Lossing’s  Cyclopaedia  of  U.  S.  history,  and  Winsor’s  Narrative

and  critical  history.  In  English  history: — The  Dictionary  of 
national  biography,  Encyclopaedia  Brittanica,  Low  and  Pulling’s 
Dictionary  of  English  history,  and  Strutt’s  Costumes  of  Eng- 
land. In  ancient  history  are  Smith’s  Classical  dictionaries 
and  the  various  Classical  atlases. 

The  arrangement  is  as  follows: — General  histories  of  a 
country  followed  by  the  histories  of  particular  periods  in  chron- 
ological order,  each  period  followed  ( i ) by  the  biographies  of 
prominent  men  of  that  period,  and  (2)  by  stories,  poems,  etc., 
illustrative  of  that  period.  In  selecting  books  on  any  one  period 
in  the  history  of  a country  one  should  refer  back  to  the  general 
histories  of  that  country.  For  a more  complete  list  of  the  his- 
torical works  in  the  Library,  the  Library  catalog  should  be 
consulted.
